Applications have been invited for the Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST).JEST is a common qualifying test for admissions to Ph.D. programmes in Physics at premier Indian research institutions (see Participating Institutes) and a Ph.D. programme in Theoretical Computer Science at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences.

Using JEST results, each institute will call a limited number of candidates for its own selection procedure depending, on its requirements.All selected candidates will receive Research Fellowships from the respective institutes.The JEST exam is used to shortlist candidates and does not automatically entitle an applicant to get a Research Fellowship.

MSc in Physics or MSc / ME / MTech in related disciplines. Candidates with MSc in Mathematics / Applied Physics / Applied Mathematics / Optics and Photonics / Instrumentation / Electronics will also be considered at IIA. Graduates with a BE or BTech will also be considered at IISc, IMSc, IUCAA, JNCASR, NCRA-TIFR RRI, IISER Mohali, IISER Pune, IISER Thiruvananthapuram and SNBNCBS.

Talented final year BSc and first year MSc (in Physics / Electronics / Astronomy / Applied Mathematics) students may also apply to be pre-selected for research scholarship at IUCAA. At IPR, candidates should have a Master's degree in Physics, Engineering Physics or Applied Physics.

(2) Theoretical Computer Science:

MSc / ME / MTech / MCA in Computer Science and related disciplines, and should be interested in the mathematical aspects of computer science.

(3) Integrated MSc / MTech - PhD Programme:

At HRI, IISER-Pune, SNBNCBS, and NCRA-TIFR candidates with a Bachelor's degree will also be considered for the integrated MSc, PhD programme in Physics. At IMSc, graduates with Bachelor’s degree in Science/ Mathematics/ Statistics / Computer science / Information technology / Engineering will also be considered for admission in Physics and in Theoretical Computer Science, as part of an integrated PhD programme. All candidates successful in the course work of this programme shall be awarded an MSc degree.

At SNBNCBS, graduates with BSc (Physics) / BE / BTech degree will be considered for the integrated Post-BSc-PhD programme in subject areas mentioned above. At IIA, graduates with BSc (Physics / Mathematics) / BE / BTech in Electrical / Instrumentation / Engineering Physics / Electronics and Communications / Computer Science and Engineering / Optics and Photonics will be considered.
